Jason Day gets fortunate deflection to save par at the RBC Heritage
Friday 15 April 2016 15:45, UK
Jason Day has made an impressive start to 2016 with two wins from his past three starts on the PGA Tour, but was fortunate to avoid getting into bother at the RBC Heritage.
Resuming one shot off the pace, the world No 1 had made a steady start to his second round at Harbour Town by opening with four consecutive pars, although needed a huge chunk of luck to continue that run at the par-three 14th.
Day appeared to have misjudged the wind when his tee shot in to the 193-yard hole looked set to land well short of the green, only for his ball to take a fortunate bounce off a wooden sleeper and make its way on to the dancefloor.
After slowing up some 40 feet from the pin, Day was able to get his long-range birdie chance close to the flag before nudging in to save par.
